1. In typhoon season climatically, visitors would better be on the watch of local weather forecast and news before Tokyo tours. Don’t plan your tour to Tokyo on typhoon days.

2. To watch a sumo battle at stadium, visitors need to book the ticket long in advance. Before each competition, there will be a ceremony, which takes more time than the real battle; so be patient.
